Prepare, adjust and work through it.

Well, looks like mother nature wants to dance yet again this winter. I wrote about her first turn on the floor in December - that was just a warm up. January was mostly quite - she was merely catching her breath. Now February has brought not one, but two 'storms of the century'. Guess we will be good to go for a couple hundred years after this one (weak grin). Got through that two week tango with barely the energy to unlace my boots. Spent the last ten days regrouping, recovering and repairing. Now, she steps on the floor to cut yet another rug. Not sure what to make of all this. With the weather, all we can do is prepare, adjust and work through it. A wiser man than I once said that there is no way to reason with Hurricane season. I am guessing that he lived in the warmer latitudes, but the same principal applies at approximately 40 degrees North with blizzard conditions. So, we take to the floor and dance again - prepare, adjust, work through, regroup, recover and repair. Takes all that I can muster to think about dancing with her again. Only comfort is the fact that I just have to follow, because in this dance, the lady leads.
